Explanation:

Let the mass of the compound be 100g.

There are 60.2g of sulfur.

Moles of sulfur

= 60.2g / (32.07g/mol) = 1.877mol

There are 100g - 60.2g

= 39.8g of manganese.

Moles of manganese

= 39.8g / (54.94g/mol) = 0.724mol

Mole ratio of manganese to sulfur

= 0.724mol : 1.877mol = 1 : 2.5.
